One Step Forward, Two Steps Back?

Carpenters have a saying. "Measure twice, cut once." I think they need something like that for Seamstresses. Our second meeting of the Mammas was fun, but we didn't quit get the quilt finished as we had planned. It happens to the best of us. The border was cut and sewn. The batting and backing was attached. But when we turned in right side out, as Homer Simpson would say "D'oh!", the backing and batting was reversed. That means it had to be taken apart and redone. After all was said and done, it was fixed and is now ready to be tied! It's so cute! We now have to decide to either donate it or auction Most of the group was busy cutting patterns and material for more stocking kits. Another tasty pot luck lunch was enjoyed by all, including our little "pappa" Michael. (He just supervised). Join us at our next meeting. We'll be tying the heart quilt and laying out our new star quilt. Along with more stocking kits there's something for everyone. When: Saturday, April 11 at 10:00 a.m. Where: Gail's house in the forest Bring: Pot luck lunch dish If you have any questions, please call Susan or email mammasonamission@gmail.com Be good humans!
